Basics
Welcome to " Ärzte für das Leben e.V." (Physicians for Life)!
Our name defines our program. We will unconditionally stand up for the lives of those people, who entrust themselves to us.This es not mean that it would be our intention to save life at all costs.. This would be forbidden by our respect for human dignity.
Basic Principles Of Our Work
- Qualification in the subject on the basis of up to date and concrete sientific findings;
- medical scills, experience and know-how;
- medical conduct on the basis of the appriciated commitment towards the contitutional law of the Federal Rebublic of Germany which guarantees the right for life and the freedom from bodily harm for all ;
- the Declaration of Geneva ,the modern version of the Hippocratic Oath , as the ethical basis of the medical profession;
- the Ten Commandmends as the conception of the Christian world.
- Ärzte für das Leben ( Doctors for Life) respect the right of human life not to be violated as an indispensable basis of medical conduct;
- stand up for the protection of human life from fertilization to natural death;
- maintain this principle during the medical routine of everyday life in all areas of our society;
- will be standing up for this principle even if the public opinion disagrees;
- critically discuss current trends in the medical world as far as they basically concern the protection of human life.
Medical progress and developement need a subtle and sincere control and observation which has to be geared towards healing and the protection of life. It is not our intention to prejudge and reject developements in healthcare and we are not afraid of critical discussions with different points of view. However, new scientific findings and developements have to be judged by the fundamental appreciation of medical work and by the protection of human life. Thus we expect further sensitivity towards our beliefs and we hope that our classical medical position on the site of life will be preserved.There is no room for discussion on this point of view !
We define the task of a doctor to protect and save life, to protect and restore health and to relieve illness and complaints. We would maintain our ethical basis in our medical routine in everyday life, even if we found ourselves contrary to the public opinion.
The members of our society support...
- the protection of human life from fertilizsation to natural death which does not mean a prolongation of life at all costs, but means - should the situation arise - to let somebody die with dignity,
- the consideration and expansion of scientific, medical findings and bases,
- a medical professionalism in the sense of Christian philosophy and ethics.
